SPEAKER_00 (00:05):
Yay, aloha, and welcome to a Course in Miracles
deep dive with Hope Johnson.
We have some fun material tocover the real meaning of the
last judgment from part 13 inchapter two of Course in

(00:27):
Miracles.
We're gonna start that onetoday.
But first, we're just gonna tunein a little bit.
You can call it a prayer.
Course in Miracles says praywithout ceasing, and Jesus
teaches us how to pray in thereto ask for Christ's vision, as
to see truly.

(00:51):
Ah thank you, thank you, thankyou, thank you, thank you for
orchestrating all of this so wecan live our function in undoing
the mind, undoing the thought ofseparation.

(01:12):
It's a joy to be part of thiscelestial speed up, as Jesus
calls it.
It's a joy to do the will ofGod, so to speak.

SPEAKER_01 (01:28):
Because it's making happy, yay.

SPEAKER_00 (01:37):
Thank you to Jesus, to Christ consciousness, to our
higher self, you could say, orGod.
There's only one of us.
Thank you to that which joinswith us to help us see the deep
meaning behind these pointings,behind this teaching device

(01:59):
called A Course in Miracles, andall the words in there.
Thank you for never-ending love,unending, unbroken.

SPEAKER_01 (02:16):
Thank you for extending your love perfectly
through us.

SPEAKER_00 (02:25):
Thank you for never leaving us abandoned, even
though it looks like weabandoned you.
Thank you for being true througheverything that we walk through
that is false and helping usrecognize the difference between
the two.

(02:46):
Yay! Amen.
Let's read.
Thank you for joining, lovely.
I appreciate you.
Okay, so we're starting withchapter two, section 13.

(03:08):
Oh, okay, yeah, section 13,because I have chapter two,
section 12 here.
I just want to summarize section12 so we pick up where we left
off left last time.
I know I have at least twopeople here that did not do the
last ACIM deep dive.

(03:29):
So the previous section, section12, the mastery of love is the
name of that one.
That one clarified the realsolution to the mind's basic
conflict.
We went over basic conflict.
That's the conflict between loveand fear.
The basic conflict.
So Jesus was emphasizing thatthe entire spiritual error stems

(03:54):
from this level of confusion.
Uh, that fear can be mastered,that fear can be somehow useful
for getting what I want, right?
To try to master fear is to givefear power in reality.
We don't want that.
The only reasonable uh andmeaningful mastery there is is
the mastery of love, becauselove is everything and fear is

(04:19):
nothing.
Okay, but because our mindbelieves in fear, conflict is
temporarily unavoidable.
So there's this conflict betweenlove and fear in our mind.
The ego's position on it istotally ill illogical.

(04:44):
It's always about continuing thesex the separation.
So the miracle which correctsthe error at its own level must
appear illogical to the ego.
For instance, allowing mercy forsomeone who's murdered in your

(05:06):
imagination.
That's illogical to the ego.
Totally illogical.
First thing the ego does does goto some kind of heinous act,
heinous person, and look at themand go, that can't be forgiven.
So the miracle is illogical tothe ego.

(05:33):
Two irreconcilable ideas can'tcoexist.
That's everything and nothing,also known as love and fear.
Whenever there's believing infear as a reality, that's
abolishing the awareness oflove.
You can't have both of those,can't be aware of both of them.

(05:55):
The ego's refusal to expose thedarkness is an attempt to hide
the separation.
It's not trying to hide theseparation.
It's just another way the egouses in a really uh efficient
way.

(06:16):
The ego thinks you don't want tolook on that darkness, you don't
want to look on the underlyingthought that's projecting this
feeling right now.
You'd rather make it aboutsomething in the world, even
something about yourself as anindividual, like, you know, like
uh, wow, I'm really bad at this,or I'm addicted to this, or

(06:37):
something like that.
That's not the same as lookingon the underlying unconscious
mind, which or unwatched mind isanother way of saying it.
When you're watching that, whenyou're noticing that fear does
come up.
But what Jesus is saying is thatthere's really nothing to fear.

(06:58):
You go through it to know love,to return to love.
And it's just a feeling in thebody's energy field.
It really is nothing.
When you recognize it's nothing,really what you're embracing is
an energy, right?
You can even look at it assomething that's similar to like
giving birth.
You know, it's like when when amother is giving birth, she's

(07:22):
just surrendering to theprocess, knowing that she wants
the outcome, right?
She's afraid of it, then she'strying to take pain meds and
trying to get away from it.
But, you know, where there's amindset where you're willing to
embrace the energies that areflowing through and the
sensations that are arising,everything becomes easy.

(07:45):
No matter what it is, it canbecome easy because everything
really is only arising andpassing away as a sensation.
The story about it isn't reallytrue.
Abraham Hicks would say, youjust gotta get that it's an
emotional journey, not so muchthis physical journey that it

(08:11):
appears to be.

(08:33):
You have this whole unconsciousmind, especially when you're
first starting out, full ofideas that make you as a
separate self to yourself.
And even if you hear this andyou believe this and you go,
yes, that those thoughts ofseparation are going to be
cropping up.
And when you recognize it's justa feeling sense that you're

(08:56):
getting in reaction to them, youcan embrace that.
So Jesus also explained howfocusing on the error is another
misuse of the mind's power.
True correction is using thespiritual eye, true vision.
Also, some people call it thirdeye, to recognize error.

(09:19):
What is error?
It's something that speaks tonot love.
It's an upset feeling isarising.
It's only a signal thatcorrection is immediately
needed.
That's what Jesus was saying inthis section.
It's a signal that correction inyour mind is immediately needed.

(09:41):
Your readiness, your decidingthat you're going to use your
mind for this purpose allows theatonement to be accepted without
delaying you.
It's like, yes, you know, oncethere's a yes within you, yes,
I'm using my mind for thispurpose.
I'm using this mind to aid inthe awakening.

(10:03):
If you're listening to a Coursein Miracles or something similar
to this, that's how you know youagreed before incarnation to
help with this awakening, withthis celestial speed up.
That's why Jesus came with thisinformation.
He was saying people were losingmore than they were gaining.

(10:24):
Humanity was losing more thangaining.
What that means is we're makingmore time than we're collapsing.
So, you know, this could lastforever.
We definitely want to speed itup.
Yeah.
So there's no compromise.

(10:50):
This was a big theme in thissection between everything and
nothing.
Time itself is the devicethrough which all of our
compromises are getting undone.
Okay, it's not saying thatcompromise itself is real, it's
not real, but our mind believesin intervals and radiations.

(11:16):
So that's why it seems to beawakening in intervals.
In a dream, it's like we walkthrough a doorway and we're at a
new space in consciousness.
And truly, what we are doing iscollapsing timelines, things
that we don't have to live out.
We don't have to play out.

(11:37):
We want to collapse the time soit doesn't have to keep playing
out.
We actually get to the end oftime.
So, of course, uh, Jesusaffirmed God's love for his son
when he revised John 3:16, avery popular verse in the Bible.

(12:01):
Uh he said, God has only oneson, and all minds are part of
the unified sonship.
The sonship as one is greaterthan the sum of its parts, but
loses awareness of thiswholeness when even one part is
missing.
One part.

(12:25):
That means one aspect of the Sonof God that you scattered over
the earth, if you would make oneof them guilty, the conflict
within your mind can't be fullyresolved.
The mind needs to, your mindneeds to return to awareness of
unity before the basic conflictin your mind between love and

(12:49):
fear can be resolved.
Jesus also critiqued the idea ofnegative numbers as symbolic of,
like in mathematics, as symbolicof the ego's belief in degrees
of nothingness.
He said it was an impossibleconcept.

(13:10):
We were talking uh earlier, uh,me and my friends talking
earlier about how our love istruly currency.
No one can be in debt, no onetruly needs to or even does pay
for anything except in theirimagination.
Let's come back to recognitionof that.

(13:32):
All this minus, this idea ofdebt, all this other stuff.
It's uh an ego belief systemthat doesn't really mean
something.
So the sonship chose to believein incompleteness.
That's why we perceive thisimaginary world.
But that belief is identicalwith believing in nothingness.

(13:56):
So the atonement, what Jesus setinto motion here, it corrects
the error of believing innothingness, the same thing as
believing in fear.
He revisited the idea ofreadiness in this section.
He said it's only theprerequisite for accomplishment

(14:19):
accomplishment, but it's notaccomplishment itself.
It shows some willingness, uh,but it's not full and not yet
confidence.
He's saying that confidencecomes with mastery, and that
comes from your willingness,perceiving an illusion, noticing

(14:43):
your reaction, and recognizingthat it's a signal that
correction is immediatelyneeded.
See that it's really simple.
So revelation may come, but thatdoesn't mean you've mastered the
communion of love because it'sbasically communion.

(15:07):
So readiness is the beginning ofconfidence.
Jesus is saying it's awesome.
Just, you know, don't get overfeeling overconfident about it,
just recognizing you're gonnahave things to learn, you're
gonna perceive yourself messingit up.
Be a happy learner, don't worryabout it.

(15:29):
Readiness is the beginning ofconfidence, and and through time
you'll be made confident, iswhat he's saying.
And uh finally, time and spaceare under Jesus' control.
Hooray! So we cruise on to thelast judgment, the real meaning

(15:49):
of the last judgment.
Welcome, everyone.
I love you.
Paragraph one sentence one.
Let me see what page we're on.
By the way, this is the completeand annotated edition, and we're
on page 105.

(16:12):
Here's the text.
Ooh, we got some thunder, fun.
Some thunder comes with thisone.
We have said that whatever youmake or create is real in your
eyes, but not necessarily in thesight of God.

(16:34):
So here we have making andcreating again.
When we hear this in a course inmiracles, what it's referring to
is what you make is an illusion.
It's not eternal.
Creations are eternal.
So what you make is real in youreyes.
Let's say debt, for instance,it's real to you, but it's not

(16:58):
real according to God, right?
So you get you've given thatthing power.
And then uh there's a footnote,a footnote here.
Where the where it was said wasin part 11.
So we're now we're at part 13.
Um, and it says it also followsthat whatever you produce is

(17:18):
real in your own eyes, but notnecessarily in the sight of God.
So he's basically referring backto when he said it two sections
ago.
Okay.
So he's linking this new sectionon the last judgment back to
this core principle alreadytaught in the basic conflict.

(17:42):
So he's going back to the basicconflict.
That's where he talked about it.
He's saying the mind has thepower to produce illusions or
create reality, it's one or theother, and you're always
creating reality.
So it's like, what do you wantto be aware of?

(18:03):
You can make yourself aware ofmaking illusions, and then
that'll cover over your creationand reality, and then that'll be
the only thing that's true, truefor you.
So what you make or producethrough separation, it appears
real to you only because you'vebelieved in it, you've valued

(18:25):
it, you've identified with it.
Like my art, for instance.
My fucking body of work withwisdom dialogues and ACIM deep
dives, you know.
It's like it's it's like there'snot there's nothing here to even
identify with because it's noteven real to God.

(18:48):
God recognizes only what'screated in love.
What's created in love iseternal, right?
Even my body of work with allthis stuff, as brilliant as it
is, it's not eternal.

(19:09):
It may be helpful if you're inthat place where you find these
pointers helpful.
So by repeating this idea, Jesusis repeating it here, and he's
and you know, it says this kindof thing in different places
too.
Like we need to know thedifference between making and

(19:32):
creating.
We need to know the differencebetween what's it what's eternal
and what's make-believe, right?
Uh for this to for the atonementto occur through us.
So by repeating this idea, uh,he's establishing this essential
premise for the last judgmentfor this chapter.

(19:52):
God does not judge illusionsbecause he does not see them as
real.
You judge illusions, and if youjudge them rightly, that's the
last judgment we're talkingabout.
You judge them as nothing,that's the last judgment we're

(20:13):
talking about here.
The last judgment is not aboutGod doing anything, he's not
about God evaluating anything.
It's your mind evaluating whatit made and choosing to keep
only what's real, keep only thelove, keep only the extensions
of love, denying reality to whatyou made, choosing to keep

(20:40):
what's real, you know,recognizing it feels really real
to me, but choosing truth.
So this is you might call it inother um spiritual tradition
traditions, it might be calleddiscernment.
I bet you've heard that before.
If you've studied any otherspiritual traditions besides the

(21:04):
Course in Miracles, you've heardit called discernment.
Isn't that fun?
So discernment is basicallyyou're able to see the false as
false.
There was one tradition, Iforgot what it was.
It might have been Zen orsomething like that, where they
just practice this practicecalled neti, not that, not that,

(21:28):
not that, to every form thatoccurs and everything that
crosses their mind.
So it's like being willing tosee the false as false is really
this is the kind of judgmentthat it is.
It's it's uh discernment is agood word for it.

(21:49):
So he's repeating it becausehe's emphasizing emphasizing to
us this liberating truth.
Your illusions seem real to youbecause you believe in them.
Belief alone is giving power toyour perceptions, but because
they're not real to God, theyhave no eternal effect.
So the last judgment is thatinstant you agree with God.

(22:15):
God's saying these things do nothave any eternal effect, only
the eternal is real.
You are the eternal.
So in the last judgment, you'veagreed with God.
You're not making a judgment onyourself, you're judging
illusions as such.

(22:42):
You're not even something thatcan be judged, but you do tend
to listen to the ego'sevaluation of you, and that
definitely blocksmiracle-mindedness if you're
listening to the ego evaluatingyou.

(23:03):
Uh, you gotta get before youridentity before that.
You're before the ego making anyuh uh interpretation or
evaluation on you.
You're the one who makes theevaluation on it.
That's why it's called the lastjudgment.

(23:24):
It's done, it's done with havingyou listen to its judgment is
now being judged as what it isfalsehood.
So, you know, you could look atjust throughout the day when
you're uh looking at theparticulars of your life and see
when you get upset over thingsand stuff like that.

(23:46):
You can just ask, is thissomething that I made?
Just notice is this somethingthat I made or is this eternal?
If it's not something that'seternal, it doesn't mean
anything, it's just a symbol,it's not even really there.

(24:07):
So help me see, another way ofsaying that is help me recognize
the unreal as unreal.
And remember that the truth istrue.

SPEAKER_01 (24:19):
That's a true prayer.

SPEAKER_00 (24:28):
So the last judgment is like a sorting out of truth
and illusion.
It's part of a process ofawakening where you do a lot of
sorting out.
There's periods where you do alot of sorting out because you
just see so much in your mind,and that's what you're doing.
You're sorting out, you'regoing, okay, that's illusion,
okay.
That's illusion, that'sillusion, that's illusion, until

(24:50):
you're just used to recognizingillusion as such.
So we feel good, we're good forsentence two, everyone.
You guys doing good?
All right.
This basic distinction leads usdirectly into the real meaning

(25:15):
So the basic distinction we'retalking about here is creating
or making.
That's what he's talking aboutagain.
He's saying we need to know thedifference between these things.
This basic distinction leads usdirectly into the real meaning

(25:39):
So he's telling us thatunderstanding the difference
between what's made, that's ego,illusion, and what's created,
spirit, reality, is theessential doorway into receiving
in your mind the true meaning ofthe last judgment.
So it's recommended if you don'tget that yet.

(26:01):
And you know, one of my friendsjust let me know the other day
that he doesn't get it.
He said, if everything's createdby God, how can any of this be
not created by God?
Okay, let's see if youunderstand this distinction.
If you don't, I recommend goingback over it until you do

(26:24):
because Jesus is saying this isessential, like knowing the
difference between making andcreating.
And it's going to be reallyimportant that you do not see
this as duality as well.
Okay, because you made duality,you made it up.
What's true is true, the createdis true.
What's make-believe is what youmade in duality with creation,

(26:50):
and a mind that's that'sprojecting itself as being in
duality with creation.
It's not really true, it wasn'tcreated because it's not really
there.
Can you experience what's notreally there?
Yes, you can.
Your mind is powerful like thatto project something that's not

(27:10):
really there and believe in it.
And then the ego comes in tosay, Well, if God created
anything, everything, then Godcreated this too.
Shake, you're in trouble.
God created that, because thecreations of God are eternal.
So then the friend tells me,nothing is eternal.
And I'm like, correction,nothing that you perceive is

(27:35):
eternal.
That's why this world is ameaningless world.
Nothing that you perceive iseternal.
You are eternal.
Can you skip the sense?
Like when you just check in withyourself, you're eternal, and
you don't want to spendeternity.
Thank goodness you can't, but itcould seem like eternity the way

(27:57):
you keep on projecting time out,you know, perceiving illusions.
You want to be back to yourcreating as fast as possible.
Everyone wants this for the mostpart.
They don't know or they don'tknow how to do it.
This is great.
Jesus is coming around tellingus how to do it.

(28:20):
Easy too and joyful.
So, why is this the essentialdoorway, so to speak, to
receiving the meaning that Jesusis talking about?
Why is that?
It's because the last judgmentisn't about evaluating you.

(28:42):
You will be evaluating you ifyou don't understand this
difference between making andcreating.
If your body is not eternal, youmade it.
If that thought about somethingis not eternal, you made it.
If you did something mean tosomeone, you made it up.
If you murdered hundreds ofthousands of people in your

(29:04):
dream, you also made that up.
You didn't do it.
I like I like how that gotaccentuated with thunder.
That was great.
So this is about evaluatingwhat's real versus unreal in

(29:28):
your mind.
If you let evaluations ofyourself just run, then you're
not able to do the lastjudgment.
You're not able to, you couldsay, perform the last judgment.
If you believe the ego'sproductions, and it is like a
production, it's like a movie orvideo game.

(29:48):
The last judgment feelsterrifying.
It's as if you're being judged.
You don't want to be judged.
But if you understand thisdistinction that Jesus made that
only illusions are being judged.
They're being judged as nothing.
That's what the last judgmentis.
Illusions are being judged asnothing.
So only the truth is preservedin your mind, and that truth is

(30:11):
what you are.
So you're recognizing what youare.
So this takes us from afear-based interpretation of the
last judgment to a healing-basedone.
This is where Jesus is preparingour mind to accept that the last
judgment is what we want.
It's not a punishment, it's justbringing the truth in.

(30:37):
It's not about God deciding yourfate.

unknown (30:42):
Okay.

SPEAKER_00 (30:42):
It's like it's when you as Christ decide what in
your mind is worthy of keeping.
What's worthy of keeping?
That's the Christ mind that doesthat.
And you don't have to wait forthis.
You don't have to wait a certainamount of time or anything like
that.
You just be willing to noticewhat in your mind is worthy of

(31:05):
keeping.
What is worthy of you in yourmind?
So illusions aren't being aren'teven being condemned here.
They're just recognized asunreal.
So and then the truth is justacknowledged when illusions are
recognized as unreal.
That's how the truth isacknowledged.

(31:31):
So practically, we can begin toreinterpret judgment now.
It's not to attack truejudgment, is clear seeing.
Every time you're discerningbetween a fearful thought and a
loving one, you're already doingit.
You're engaging in the lastjudgment.

(31:53):
That's the last judgment.
So you can keep that thoughtthat has to keep on evaluating

(32:16):
you.
So this is how we're going fromself-condemnation to liberation.
And if you'll take this, youknow, literally, that any
attempt to evaluate you isbasically self-attack.

(32:41):
You're implementing the finaljudgment.
So that was paragraph one.
Apparently, it was a very shortparagraph.
Wait, let's see.
Paragraph one.

(33:02):
Final judgment is one of oh yes.
Oh, I see what's happening.
Yeah, paragraph one was only twosentences.
So we're on paragraph twoalready.
Yay.
Paragraph two, sentence one.
Here's the text.
The final judgment is one of thegreatest threat concepts in

(33:27):
humanity's perception.
So Jesus is calling attention tohow deeply the ego has
distorted, distorted thisconcept of last or final
judgment.
Collectively, humanity isperceiving this as a moment of
ultimate danger, a divinereckoning.

(33:51):
The wrath of God is coming.
Punishment is inevitable.
If you think anyone's gettingthis, anyone's anyone is going
to have to suffer the wrath ofGod, you secretly believe that
about yourself.
And that means correction isneeded immediately.

(34:12):
All believing that aboutyourself is doing is continuing
to push time forward, projecttime.

(34:36):
Look at the stories, one ofwhich he asked someone to kill
his son to show his love forJesus or God, or I think it was
God in that time.
Another one, one quote unquote,weak woman ate an apple and made

(34:58):
thousands of years of sufferingand terror for everyone.
God did that to them because heloves them.
Who's gonna believe in such aGod anymore?
Who's gonna believe in such atreacherous, evil God?

(35:21):
That is the ego's God.
The ego projects a god thathates his children so much that
he kills them.
Apparently, he gave his favoriteson a brutal death on a cross to

(35:44):
save the others who aren't evendoing it.
Uh no one needs that.
That's the reason the even theword God strikes fear in the
heart of people.
People a lot of the times don'teven want to go there, don't

(36:07):
even tell me about God.
Go away from it, go away fromme.
But when you look at God, howJesus is describing him here in
a course in miracles, and youcan feel for yourself when you
just open up to it, more likeyou know, symbolically,
everything we can use here,words and the things we talk

(36:27):
about are all symbolic, butsymbolically like a loving
father, totally loving, totallysees that what you think you
did, you didn't do.

(36:47):
All he knows is that you thinkyou're over here doing shit and
making yourself guilty.

(37:11):
So the result in the collectiveconsciousness is this terrifying
image of a judgmental god, andthat's why people think that
it's godly to project judgmentthemselves and decide who needs
punishment.
That's why, you know, back in atleast in my day when I was a

(37:34):
kid, man, you it you had topunish your kids, otherwise the
other people around you would belike, hey, your kids fucking
everything up.
You're not that was the story,right?
In order to keep them in line,it was the the the collective
consciousness of like you haveto pun, you have to punish them.
You have to know between goodand evil, you have to know

(37:55):
between between right and wrong,so you can instill it into your
kids through punishment.
That's because of the storiesbeing projected onto God.
Humans are gonna be exactly theway they think that God is.
So this is changing theperception of what God is
actually doing.
He's not their judgment, isn'tsomething that's in God, it's

(38:19):
projected onto a screen ofconsciousness.
That's why it doesn't reallyhappen, it has to be projected.
Projected means you're it's likeit's like you're dreaming.
Yeah.
All right, so the ego is usingthis concept of judgment as a

(38:41):
psychological weapon.
This keeps the mind afraid ofGod and listening to what people
say to do.
It's basically a uh society ofslaves, slave enslaved to the
ego, falling, falling in line,right?

(39:05):
Everyone keeping each other inline.
You know, COVID was a reallygood symbol of that, right?
How the ego works.
Okay, we're all afraid ofsomething, and I'm afraid of
your body, and if you're notdoing it right, I'm gonna shame
you until you get in line.
I feel uncomfortable.

(39:26):
All right, I'll just do itbecause you guys are shaming me,
right?
That's kind of like how it iswhen you're a little kid, right?
You're you're saying, you'resaying the stuff that you know
because you know some shit, andthe adults are like, no, sorry.
Now everyone isn't doingeverything for you.
Sorry, that's not the case.

(39:55):
So, by recognizing this upfront, what Jesus is saying
again, the final judgment is oneof the greatest threat concepts
in humanity's perception.
So he's preparing us for thedismantling of fear around this,
restoring the meaning of thefinal judgment, restoring it as

(40:16):
an act of liberation, not somekind of condemnation, not some
kind of decision.
It is a decision for eternity.
It's a decision for eternityover illusion.
And it's an eternal, you can sayit's an eternal decision.
It actually adds up and becomesmore helpful.

(40:38):
Each decision is like that.
So judgment is only gonnafrighten you if you believe
you're guilty.
If you perceive someone elsebeing judgmental toward you,
notice your reaction.
When you're reacting to theirapparent judgment, they can't
even see you.
There's no way they can they canjudge you at all.

(41:01):
They're they're talking aboutit's self-talk, right?
So if you believe that you'reguilty, you're getting a
reaction.
This is not a bad thing, it's asymbol that your mind needs
correction.
Some belief in guilt is ready tobe healed and can be healed when
you recognize what the wholeexperience is for.

(41:26):
Uh, it's also going to befrightening to you if you
believe that God would condemnyou.
It's also going to befrightening to you.
The last judgment's going to befrightening to you.
If you believe that you what youmade here, what you made, these
errors in perception, have realconsequences.

(41:48):
If you believe they have realconsequences, then you're going
to be afraid of the lastjudgment.
Nothing you seem to have done inthe past affects you right now.
It's only your present moment,state of mind that's projecting

(42:08):
your experience now.
So the only reason the finaljudgment is even being perceived
as a threat, God is beingperceived as a condemner or
something threatening, isbecause the ego knows it'll be
exposed.

(42:29):
It also thinks it'll bedestroyed, but it isn't an
actual entity, so it's notgetting destroyed.
What's fueling the ego, what'spowering the ego, just is back
to source, it's back to beingsource, it's no longer

(42:52):
misinformed.
So it is the end of ego.
That's why ego is afraid, butthe even the ego's self is
source.
See that it is the end of ego,and it's okay because the ego's

(43:16):
self is source.
The ego is never gonna knowthat's okay because it doesn't
see beyond its limited view, itdoesn't see to the source like
you can.
Did something come to mind?

SPEAKER_04 (43:32):
It's almost the way the Bible describes um God's
relationship with Lucifer washis right-hand man, or is almost
like came from the same place,um, but just lost its way or
lost its right direction.

SPEAKER_00 (43:49):
Right, lost direction, that's a good way to
put it.
And over millions of years,apparently kept adding it up,
building it up, yes, yes.
So every time there's a fear ofbeing judged, it doesn't matter

(44:10):
if it's God, others, yourself.
Remember, judgment is neveragainst you, it's just
recognizing what is eternal,what's innocent in you by
noticing that illusions are notanything when they're recognized

(44:33):
as nothing, they don't have anypower over you.
That's the direction you'regoing with all illusions.
You actually have command overall illusions, but don't realize
that command.
You're actually in communionwith the particles of everything
by way of the creation.

(44:57):
So are we willing to let go offear of judgment?
Whenever you feel judged, talk,you know, think about this
accepting the final judgment.
You know, when you feel judged,that's your reaction to
someone's apparent judgment.

(45:18):
That's self-judgment, right?
They're not really capable of uhjudging themselves either, but
they believe their self-talk,right?
So that's how you actually arehealing, you're helping everyone
see, recognizing that thatjudgment isn't even against you,
it's a call for love.
What am I gonna do?
How am I gonna answer this callfor love?

(45:39):
I'm gonna accept the finaljudgment for myself.
That's an illusion, and onlylove is here.
Easy.
Only love is possible, only loveis real.
If God didn't create it, itdoesn't exist.
Likewise, if you don't like it,it doesn't exist.

(46:03):
Unless you're talking abouteternity, but everyone likes
eternity, they can't even helpit.
So releasing fear of judgmentallows us to accept the final
judgment.
Okay, it's the end of everythingthat wasn't me.

(46:26):
It seems like it's the end ofme, though, because of
identification as an ego.
That's all.
Yay, everyone.
All right, we're going on toanother sentence now.
I know you guys are excited.

(46:47):
Paragraph two, sentence two.
This is only because you don't,you do not understand it.
So he's talking about the finaljudgment.
It says the last sentence, thefinal judgment is one of the
greatest threat concepts inhumanity's perception.
And then he says, This is onlybecause you do not understand

(47:12):
it.
So the reason for humanity'sfear of the final judgment is
not the judgment itself, it's amisunderstanding from what the
judgment is, like we talkedabout in the last sentence and
going into the last sentence.
Uh, the concept itself isn'tactually frightening, nothing in

(47:32):
God's plan is designed isdesigned to cause anyone fear.
The threat's only coming upbecause the ego misinterpreted
the concept.
So fear is not evidence ofdanger.
That's another concept to see.
Fear is not evidence that thereis danger, it's evidence of

(47:57):
confusion.
So uh I noticed a little coupledays ago or something like that.
My mom told you, told me, uh, Idon't think you should go to
Washington.
This has been a theme my wholelife.
I don't think you should go onthat 4-H trip.
Because the if you go, thesomething terrible is gonna

(48:20):
happen.
And then the 4-H trip happens,and then I'm like, nothing,
nothing happened to them, mom.
She's like, I know that'sbecause you weren't on the bus.
If you're on the bus, this ma'amwas going to occur.
So when I was going to so when Iwas going to Mexico, same thing.
Same thing.

(48:41):
I go, mom, I love you.
I know that's just a feeling offear.
I'm doing I'm doing great.
I'm doing awesome.
And uh the same thing withWashington.
I go, I go, it's not like youknow, there's this perception
too, like I have to go there,like I have nowhere else to go.
I go, no, I got places to go.
It's a calling, I'm being calledthere.

(49:02):
It's just this evidence, uh,fear to the ego is evidence of
danger.
So instead of I feel afraid thatyou're going over there, that
something bad might happen, andrecognizing that as being a
signal of confusion, there'smaking it real.

(49:23):
See, it's a really easy example.
See that that's it, that's thechoice to either make it real or
look at it as evidence ofconfusion.
Correction is needed right now,whenever there's fear.
So once the mind's willing,totally willing, to understand

(49:45):
the true meaning of fear, itjust disappears.
It's like, oh, it's just asignal to tell me my mind needs
to be corrected.
So this is setting the tone.
This sentence is setting thetone for this whole section.
The final judgment is notsomething to fear, it's
something to understandcorrectly.

(50:06):
Fear is always a sign thatyou're misperceiving, and Jesus
is saying, You're not afraid.
You or you are afraid becauseyou've misunderstood.
And now I'm gonna correct yourmisunderstanding.
So if you let him reinterpretwhatever it is you're

(50:28):
perceiving, you will see it isonly love.
So if I feel fear, I must notyet understand.
If I ever feel fear, I'm afraidfor anyone else.
People will even say it, they'llsay, I'm afraid this, right?

(50:50):
Show me the truth so that I cansee without the fear.
Opening your mind to healing.
So we accept fear not as proofthat there's something
dangerous, but proof that we'reready to receive correction.

(51:11):
We're ready when we're seeingfear like this.
Thank you for joining.
I love you.
Yeah.
Okay.
Paragraph two, sentence three.
Judgment is not an essentialattribute of God.

(51:36):
So this has been what's fueledfear of God for millennia,
right?
You don't want God's judgment tocome down on you.
And Jesus is saying judgment isnot even one of his
characteristics.
God doesn't judge becausejudgment implies evaluation,
separation, comparison, allwhich are totally foreign to

(51:58):
oneness.
So to judge is to choose betweenone thing or another.
That's an ability we gaveourselves, the ability to judge.
So God being absolute andindivisible, he does not
perceive any difference.
He knows only what he creates,and that what he creates is

(52:20):
perfect.
So judgment is a concept that weintroduce after believing in
separation.
This is comes after separation.
So we're being shown how to useit.
Everything that we made inseparation, everything we made
in the ego, we're just beingshown how to how to use it.
With fear, it's we're beingshown how to see it, because

(52:43):
he's saying you don't use fear.
So this corrects a core fearthat's in the human psyche.
And just by you letting it becorrected in your mind, you're
helping everyone to like click,click, click across the sun
chip.
Okay.
If God doesn't judge, thenthere's nothing to fear from

(53:03):
God.
So the last judgment must besomething entirely different
than what the ego imagines it tobe.
But people are afraid of thelast judgment, even if they
don't call it that.
So to believe God judges is alsoto believe that God can see

(53:28):
something other than himself,other than what he created,
which would mean that separationis real.
That's why he made uh he createdsons like him to know him.

(53:50):
And they have free will to makeillusions.
God doesn't even acknowledgeillusions, let alone condemn
them.
He'll never judge you.
In his sight you always remaininnocent, pure, eternal, exactly

(54:13):
as he created you.
Anything you fear, anything youfear judgment, let's say
anything you fear judgment for,like you think you did
something, I was mean to them atone time.
I probably have some karma orsomething, is already known to
be nothing.

(54:34):
So it's going from thisperception that the divine
condemns to getting divine helpin recognizing what's true, you
know, really asking for the helpthat we need and not being
afraid that God's gonna condemnus.

(54:57):
So this is releasing thatsubconscious belief that God is
watching, evaluating, or keepingscore.
God is one with you, and this isthis belief is a barrier for you
being more intimate in yourrelationship with God.
See, with this having a selfthat seems to be made of form,

(55:21):
the the way to know your unionis in relationship with God.
And you can't be in closerelationship with God while
you're believing that he'swatching you or making judgments
on you or evaluating your goodand bad works.
That's why it says not by worksof righteousness in the Bible,

(55:42):
right?
You're saved through grace, notby works of righteousness.
So you don't have to try to berighteous in God's eyes.
God is only love, pure love.
And there's nothing in you thatcan possibly be condemned.
Nothing needs to be condemned,and nothing can be condemned.

(56:04):
So let yourself be released.
Accepting the judgment is notcoming from God, it never had
any power, this weird kind ofego judgment that we perceive in
the world and we perceive in ourminds this is not real.
Are you willing to let it passaway?

(56:24):
And by judging that thing asactually being false.
That thing has no meaning, thatthought, that thing, whatever.
So remembering God is only loveis the goal here.
Yay.

(56:45):
All right, paragraph two,sentence four.
You brought judgment into beingonly because of the separation.
So we talked about this a minuteago.
The judgment isn't of God, it'sof the ego, it's a consequence

(57:06):
of believing in separation.
Before there is an illusion thatof separation, there was no
judgment, there were nodifferences, there's no guilt,
no unworthiness, no right orwrong.
Perfect, undivided love only forall.
So judgment didn't even beginuntil the mind believed it could

(57:30):
be separate and create aseparate self.
So this belief produced guiltimmediately.
That belief of creating aseparate from God produced
guilt.
And where there's guilt, therehas to be judgment.
Those go together.
The ego invented judgment sothat it could be in self-defense

(57:53):
all the time.
It's a self-defense mechanism.
What does judgment do?
It assesses threats, itjustifies attack, it compares
illusions, it establisheshierarchy of value of people and
things and all kinds of stuff.
So judgment is a symptom, it's asymptom of separation.

(58:17):
So if it originated fromseparation, then it has no place
in truth, it has no place in youas God created you.
So being part of the illusionand not part of reality,

(58:38):
judgment can be used to undoseparation and thereby undo
judgment itself, and undo thewhole need for judgment.
This is the key to understandingthe last judgment.
It's not God imposing judgmenton humanity, it's undoing
judgment altogether by undoingthe belief in separation.

(59:01):
So, since judgment isn't aneternal truth, it's actually a
consequence of believing I'mseparate.
If I choose unity right now, usejudgment in that way.
If I choose unity, judgmentdissolves.
It came with separation,judgment came along with

(59:21):
separation, it's gonna leavethrough union.
I choose to remember my unionwith God.
That is basically judgingwhatever blocks to knowing that
union with God as meaningless.

SPEAKER_01 (59:47):
Checking on you guys.
Okay, you're doing awesome.

SPEAKER_00 (59:49):
I love you.
So we're going on to paragraphtwo, sentence five.
God himself is still the God ofmercy.
So this is reassuring, isn't it?

(01:00:10):
Jesus is reminding us that God'snature is never changed despite
all these projections,punishing, wrathful.
God remains as he is, puremercy, pure love, pure
innocence.

(01:00:30):
So this following the previoussentence to judgment came only
from the ego's belief inseparation.
And then it says God himself isstill the God of mercy.
He didn't change because of yourbelief like this.
He didn't become a judge justbecause you believed he was
judgmental.
He didn't never become a judge.

(01:00:51):
He's remained and has alwaysbeen mercy.
In this context, what Jesus issaying again, the sentence, God
himself is still the God ofmercy.
So in this context, it doesn'tmean that God overlooks your

(01:01:12):
sins.
It means God knows already younever sinned.
God doesn't need forgiveness,God only knows you as a true
creation.
So it's not forgiveness ofwrongdoing, it's recognizing
that wrongdoing never occurredin truth.
And that's the kind offorgiveness we're asked to
extend to the world because wedo get a perception of

(01:01:36):
wrongdoing.
That's why we need forgiveness.
We get the visceral reaction toit and everything.
So that's why we useforgiveness.
It's like we want to see likeGod.
That's what Christ's vision is.
So God's vision says no one'sever sinned.
I don't care what the storiesare.

(01:01:58):
If it happened after theseparation, it didn't really
happen.
So we remain held in that mercy,uncondemned, unchanged, no
matter how much we've beenprojecting onto ourselves, where
we stay with God wholly loved.

(01:02:19):
See, everything's just sotemporary here.
It's just a dream, it's just aprojection.
It's not even serious.
So this sentence is meant tohelp restore your trust in God
by affirming in your mind thatGod is not capable of

(01:02:42):
condemning.
Only the ego does that.
God holds you in mercy, perfectmercy, because he recognizes
only your innocence because Godis innocent.
God himself is innocence.
So this is preparation still forunderstanding the last judgment.

(01:03:06):
It's not punishment, God is onlymercy.
It actually comes from Godbecause God is only mercy.
So through God's mercy, you canimplement the last judgment.
Let's say.

(01:04:36):
God has never changed his mindabout you.
So you can always come back tothe truth.
You can always come back to thetruth of that.
All right, sentence six.
Let's see how many sentences wehave here.
Oh, that's the last one onparagraph two.
Sentence six.

(01:04:59):
After the separation, however,there was a place for justice in
the schema because it was one ofthe many learning devices which
had to be built into the overallplan.
So now we made a shift.
Jesus shifting from describingGod's changeless love,

(01:05:23):
changeless nature,non-judgmental.
Um, now he's talking aboutjustice as a teaching device, as
a temporary teaching device.
So this is not justice as inmeeting out any punishment, it's
restoring balance to a mind thatbelieves it's not in balance.

(01:05:49):
Before the separation, ofcourse, there was no justice.
It was meaningless.
What is their justice for what'swhole and perfectly loved and
equal?
After separation, the mindbelieved in inequality.
Now we seem to seemanifestations of that, and

(01:06:11):
that's an effect of the mindbelieving in it.

SPEAKER_01 (01:06:17):
Believing that it could take or lose or be harmed.
So justice emerged.

SPEAKER_00 (01:06:31):
That's a way to demonstrate what's out of
alignment must be restored tothe truth.
Whatever's out of alignment mustbe restored to the truth.
The world's justice is weird.
Building prisons, right?
It's like you know, you dosomething wrong and then you get

(01:06:52):
in trouble, you get some kind ofpunishment.
That's not justice.
That's not true justice.
True justice is restoringinnocence, restoring the mind to
innocent, not deeming themguilty and then giving them a
sentence.
That's true justice.
But that's just an effect of theway we keep on doing shit in the

(01:07:16):
mind.
The prisons we perceive, that'san effect.

SPEAKER_04 (01:07:25):
It's like eternal prisons, your punishment.

SPEAKER_00 (01:07:30):
Yeah, your punishment.
Yep, hell is your punishment,heaven is your reward, right?
Either get a reward or apunishment.
That's the story.
Look how this makes less andless sense all the time.
You see, it's like when you usea reasonable mind, it's like,
okay, I'm not buying into thisjudgmental God anymore.

(01:07:50):
I'm not buying into there'seither punishment or a reward at
the end of the life.
How insane is that?

SPEAKER_01 (01:08:03):
So justice serves one function.

SPEAKER_00 (01:08:11):
It corrects misperception, it shows that
fear and guilt cannot prevailover the truth, they're not
equal.
This is the level confusion hewas talking about.
It's like guilt on one hand,truth on the other hand, but
truth is like this.
It's like all you have to do isacknowledge that the truth is

(01:08:34):
true.
But they are mutually exclusive.
So if you're acknowledging thatguilt is true, you're making
that true true for yourself, youcan't see the truth.
And when you're acknowledgingthe truth is true, you can't see
the guilt.

SPEAKER_01 (01:08:57):
You just enjoy that the truth is true and nothing
has done anything to the truth.
Change the truth.

SPEAKER_00 (01:09:12):
Restoring the mind to sanity, that's what God's
justice is.
So there's an importantmetaphysical principle here.
And it's that justice is a formof love.
It's not used to condemn, it'sused to teach.

(01:09:32):
It teaches that the mind isinnocent.
That's what justice is.
It ensures that what's true isupheld and what's false is not
undone.
So justice in this const contextmeans that illusions do not
replace the truth.

(01:09:54):
Miscreation cannot overturncreation.
Just because someone's beenmiscreating, believing ideas
that are not true, doesn'toverturn creation.
Doesn't have any real effects,let's say.
An error can never triumph overyour innocence.

(01:10:14):
Anything that denies yourinnocence is error.
Or anyone's innocence is error,because it's all you.

(01:10:41):
Retribution.
You could have to payretribution, or I think that's
what it's called.
Mess someone up.
So justice truly means that thetruth will be restored to my
mind, and innocence willprevail.
So we all want justice.

(01:11:01):
Everyone wants justice.
We have a shared interest injustice prevailing in the world.
So we see justice not aspunishment, but as our certainty

(01:11:22):
that love will correct allerrors.
That willingness that's offeredin the moment to allow love to
correct error is where itstarts, and it just keeps on
building up until you're totallycertain about it.
Am I willing right now?
That's the question.

(01:11:43):
Am I willing to embrace thiskind of justice?
This gentle assurance thatnothing has gone wrong, that
nothing real can be threatened.
I'm real, nothing unreal exists.
Everyone doing good?

(01:12:03):
You need any clarifications oranything?
All right.
You doing okay?
All right, all right, awesome.
Paragraph three, sentence one.
Just as the separation occurredover many millions of years,
here's where he says it.
Over many millions of years.

(01:12:27):
Seems like a long time, right?
The last judgment will extendover a similarly long period and
perhaps even longer.
All right, wait for it.
Don't get disheartened.

(01:12:52):
All right, so Jesus is nowintroducing the concept of time
in relation to the lastjudgment, isn't he?
He's saying that the human mindthat still believes in linear
times and processes for thehuman mind, it's take gonna take
millions of years to undo this.
That's why he's saying he wassaying, uh, you know, we've been

(01:13:13):
losing ground.
Right?
So just as the separation wasn'ta single moment, it was a
process of continuing tofragment in perception.
The undoing of separation, thelast judgment, is also a process
of healing.

(01:13:34):
So the sentence is not making aliteral claim about millions of
years, it's speaking to thescale of misperception we've
built over time, and so the needfor a progressive undoing.
Um, you know, when when I readsomething like this, uh have an

(01:13:56):
experience with something likethis, I recognize we're at the
early stages of this, we're atthe very early stages of this
because we haven't even gottento the point where we perceive
that we're in command of theseparticles yet.
To some degree, yes.
You know, from my perception,just because of dealing with

(01:14:20):
things like, let's say, asymptom of sickness and the
practice of recognizing that thesickness is me projecting right
now, and it's only caused by adefense against the truth that
symptoms disappear.
It's like they lose their legs,they got no roots, they can't

(01:14:41):
stay.
So the symptoms just disappear.
So, that to me is one way that Isee uh the mind being in command
of the particles.
Why is it being called command?
Because the particles want tojoin in love with you.
When you're willing to join inlove, when you're bringing them

(01:15:02):
back to the wholeness, that isan example of bringing it back
to the wholeness.
This symptom is allowed to be inwholeness, because it's just
recognizing this symptom as anexperience and not as something
that was caused by the past,which is what past thoughts,
which are preoccupying my mindall the time, making all kinds

(01:15:25):
of sickness all the time.
It's just a habit, right?
So as we continue to practice inthis same kind of way and
continue to see differently, weget more and more help.
We become more and more open.
So uh, yeah, I mean, we're gonnasee amazing miracles.
Jesus says we'll see moremiracles than what came through

(01:15:50):
him in his apparent time as aman cruising around, healing
people.
Yeah, he's just cruising aroundwith his posse walking
everywhere.
So all right, so the lastjudgment isn't a final moment in

(01:16:16):
time, it's a process of undoingseparation one mind at a time
and thought by thought.
As each meaningless thoughtarises, it's seen as not real,
not meaningful, not helpful.
You know, the ego is trying tobe helpful, he really is.
He thinks that you are guiltyand you think that you deserve

(01:16:38):
to die, and he wants to makesure that that occurs every
time.
He kills you in little ways, butall throughout it's like that
saying uh, life is a bitch, thenyou die.

(01:16:59):
It's like that saying, right?
That becomes uh this is just theway it is, and we agree on the
way things are, that's whatgives it power at all.
So the ego holds on to thesefearful thoughts about the last
judgment, like it's a suddenevent where God condemns, like,

(01:17:20):
oh shit.
Some people, when they passover, when they you could say
they cross over into the spiritrealm, and you know how some
people come back, there's ashitload of those NDEs.
So I started watching them,right?
Near death experiences.
I started watching these fuckersto see what's going on, right?
It's it's basically a projectionof their own consciousness, it's

(01:17:45):
happening there.
That's why everyone's having adifferent but something
soothing.
Isn't that sweet though?
Because your burdens of theworld aren't there, so it's an
aspect of the consciousness, andeveryone who comes back talks
about how sweet it was and howmuch love they felt and
everything like that.
It's because that's you.

(01:18:07):
Yeah, but well, they pretend tohave that conversation and they
absolutely do decide to go backin.
Everyone just pretends to havethat conversation.
It's just it's it's part of theillusion.
Um, I've heard it called, and Idon't know where, it might even

(01:18:27):
be in a course in miracles, I'mnot sure.
The death realm.
So you have heard it called thedeath realm just because you're
free of all your burdens andeverything, but you have this
urge to keep on coming back inhere, right?
And the reason why is becauseyou have to purify a guilty
self-conscious self-concept.

(01:18:49):
That's why when you go to thedeath realm, it doesn't last,
you end up back over here.
Either your memory is wiped orit's not.
If you're going back intousually into the same life, you
still retain your memory, but ifyou're going through newborn
baby route, usually, sometimesnot.

(01:19:10):
There's been stories, hey, hey,a little kid going, I'm that
person, and I know all this, andI own all this, and I know all
this.
So that's also for the awakeningof consciousness as well.
People just, you know, it'sshocking.
People are like, What the fuck?
Everything we thought was trueisn't true.

(01:19:30):
We thought they were gone whenthey die.
How the fuck are they remember alife?
So the last judgment has apurpose, and that's to patiently
go through every thought, everyillusion uh that we've believed

(01:19:50):
over countless lifetimes.
Okay, and apply this lastjudgment to everything, it's a
guarantee that you're going toreturn to truth, having this
ability to judge beingrepurposed to the last judgment.
So, how this applies too whenyou feel impatient.

(01:20:14):
Because now we're talking aboutmillions of years to undo
something, right?
What if you feel impatient aboutyour spiritual progress?
This is going too slow, oryou're discouraged, or you seem
to still be reactive and you'vebeen practicing for a while.
I'm already in the process ofthe last judgment.
I'm already doing it, it'salready being done, it's being

(01:20:36):
done through me.
Think of it yourself truly likeyou're floating down a river to
the ocean.
This is actually gonna make itgo faster.
That's the thing.
When you lament, oh, I should befurther along, or you you you
give into impatience orsomething like that.

(01:20:56):
You're refusing to just flowwith it and let it flow through
you.
So you're making it take longer.
You want it to go as fast as itcan possibly go.
Get really good at relaxing.
That's how you do it.
Because when you're notrelaxing, it's like you're
trying to swim up the river,you're getting exhausted.

(01:21:18):
You think you're going down theriver, but you're going up the
river because you don't know thedirection when you're upset.
When you're upset, you need helpknowing the direction.
The direction is relaxation.
You don't try to swim.
Float.

SPEAKER_01 (01:21:34):
Float, don't swim.
Okay, so there's no futurecrisis.

SPEAKER_00 (01:21:50):
No crisis coming in the future.
The last judgment is being usedto loom this future crisis.
You know, all of a sudden theheavens is gonna open up, and
all right, it's time for all thebad fuckers to go to hell and
the good ones to go to heaven.

(01:22:13):
So it's a healing journey thatwe're safely participating in.
Safely.
That's why we can relax.
Nothing touches us.
It's a it's just when we believethat something's uh threatening,
it seems threatening to us.
And just making threats realsets us up for sickness and

(01:22:35):
accidents and conflict and stufflike that.
So let me check on you, sweetiepies.
Okay, paragraph three, sentencetwo.
Let's go back to the lastsentence first, because it's
talking about the last judgmentwill extend over a similarly

(01:22:58):
long period and perhaps evenlonger.
And then sentence two says, itslength depends, however, on the
effectiveness of the presentspeed up.
So that's up to us.
And really, we need to learn howto relax.

(01:23:19):
It's not like this hurry up andrelax.
It's like, it's really simple.
I mean, this was the very firstthing that came to me probably
like 20 years ago when I firststarted uh just dabbling in
spirituality.
You gotta learn how to relax,and you can't do that through
stress, you can't stress yourway to relaxation.

(01:23:42):
It's like it won't happen,right?
Even when you tell yourself, Igotta make more room for myself
to relax, you're alreadystretching, stressing out.
You just relax right now.
See, when you're willing toembrace your experience and be
relaxed with your experience,all manner of manifestation of

(01:24:03):
relaxation, like you're at thespa or something just occurs.
Right?
Or you're or you're able, youfeel like you're able, most
people don't feel like they'reable, to take a couple hours and
have some block therapy.
The two busy, they're like, Howdo you have time for this?

(01:24:25):
I've been practicing relaxingfor a long time.
I've been practicing that.
It's a it's just a matter ofwould I be willing to see this
in a more uh comfortable andrelaxed way than the way I made
it up?
You know, and God changes uheverything.
It's you say knowledge of Godchanges everything, the way

(01:24:46):
you're perceiving things as athreat, and you see them as a
blessing now, that's relaxing.
So I want to see this, I want tosee things differently if I'm
ever tense.
I just want to see thingsdifferently.
It's easy, and and just wantingit, you get it.
You get what you want.
See how simple that is.

(01:25:08):
So there's a footnote here,footnote 167.
It says, this is anotherreference to the celestial
speedup from miracle principle48, uh, in which certain people
are being called into physicalincarnation to help counteract
the world going backwardsspiritually.

(01:25:31):
So miracle principle 48 says youdo have special talents which
are needed for the celestialspeed up at this time.
But note that the term speed upis not one which relates to the
transcending of time.
We're actually collapsing time.
That was that's why we're nottrying to transcend time, we are

(01:25:54):
making it shorter, literally,because right now it's longer.
What he at least in the 70s whenhe channeled this, he was saying
it's longer the time it's gonnatake from this point forward, if
no speed up is done, then you'vespent building separation, which
has been millions of years, sono one wants that.

(01:26:19):
Maybe the ego does, yeah,another millions of years.
Okay, good.
So he's revealing, Jesus isrevealing that the undoing of
the separation can be greatlyaccelerated, and he's saying not
by abolishing time, butrepurposing time for healing

(01:26:42):
instead of using it for delay.
The ego's purpose for time isdelay, because that's the way
the ego keeps a job.
So, what he's calling thepresent speed up is a
coordinated effort of spirit.
It's where all these willingminds are being called to use
their unique gifts.

(01:27:02):
What are your unique gifts?
You don't have to look foranything special.
Your particular way ofperceiving is enough.
There's no thing that you needto do or present to the world.
If you do, you'll find yourselfdoing it.
You don't need to get yourspecial purpose and make

(01:27:22):
yourself a resume about that.
It's like this this manner ofperceiving, the way you're
perceiving, is purpose, isperfect for this.
That's your purpose.
So we're gonna use our uniquegifts, which is our unique way
of perceiving, to collapse timesimply by choosing miracles.

(01:27:48):
What I thought happened did nothappen.
Anything that strikes fear inyour heart, anything that seems
mean or bad or wrong, right?
Okay, so this uh the referencetext is clarifying a couple of
vital points here.
One, you do have specialtalents, not ego specialness.

(01:28:08):
There's a unique configurationof your perception, and the
spirit is going to use that toadvance healing for all.
You don't even need to know oridentify it.
The term speed up is not onewhich relates to transcending of
time.
Jesus makes that clear.

(01:28:29):
This means we're not skipping bytime, we're using miracles to
actually shorten it.
It hasn't not been transcendedyet.
Time hasn't been transcendedyet, but it's being compressed
to minimize the delay andsuffering that take place until
it is transcended.
The thing about time beingextended, the longer it goes,

(01:28:52):
the more apparent sufferingoccurs in there.
And that's not God's will foranyone.
So Jesus isn't trying to pushyou with a sense of urgency
here, he's letting you know thatyou're carried with purpose.
That's the way to see it.
I'm being carried with purpose.

(01:29:12):
This is not about doing more forthe speed up.
This is the ego's way of seeingshit, right?
We're allowing love to use usmore willingly here.
You are part of the celestialspeed up if you hear this.

(01:29:35):
Your talents are not at random.
That means your way ofperceiving is not a random way
of perceiving.
It's perfect for this.
Your life as you made it isperfect for this.
Okay, they're not, it's not anevaluation on you.
It's given you because it'sperfect for elevating the
sonship through you.

(01:29:58):
This isn't about rushing.
It's about efficiency.
Your willingness to collapsetime that would otherwise take a
lot more lifetimes is how ithappens.
It's just this willingness.
Rather than asking, how longwill this awakening take?
Ask how much am I willing to letmy mind be used right now?

(01:30:23):
Holy Spirit, I offer my talentsto the celestial speed up.
Use them for healing.
Collapse time for me, collapsetime for everyone.
So this is aligning you withyour pre-incarnation agreement
to be a bringer of light,specifically during this time.

(01:30:45):
Collective acceleration.
So accepting our part in thisplan, not to endure anything,
not to suffer, to shorten timeand to shorten suffering for
everyone.

(01:31:06):
It's about using our life, usingour body, using all the
resources, using everything weseem to have in our perceived
life to undo delay, to hastenthe remembrance of love.
When you use everything forthat, it becomes useful for
that.
That's just how it is.
When that's your intention,that's how it goes.

(01:31:27):
Let this be used in service tothe awakening.
Asking for every relationship todo that as well, instead of
trying to get things for theego.
How does this benefit the ego?
That's how the ego looks atthings.
How does this benefit me assomething separate?
All right.

(01:31:52):
So, paragraph three, sentensentence three.
We have frequently noted thatthe miracle is a device for
shortening but not abolishingthe time.
That is the one I just did,isn't it?
Let me see.

SPEAKER_01 (01:32:17):
Paragraph three, sentence three.
Let me see where we are.
Paragraph three, sent sentenceone.

SPEAKER_00 (01:32:39):
Just as a separation occurred over millions of years,
the last judgment will extendover a similarly long period and
perhaps longer.
Sentence two.

(01:32:59):
So sentence three, we havefrequently noted that the
miracle is a device forshortening but not abolishing
time.
That's why I thought we alreadyread that one because it was in
a footnote too on another onanother sentence.
Um and that has a footnote uhmiracle principle.

(01:33:22):
47 sentences one to four.
We said before that the miracleabolishes time, it does this by
a process of collapsing it, itthus abolishes certain intervals
within it.
So we don't have to live thoseintervals.
It does this, however, withinthe larger temporal sequence.

(01:33:45):
So, and that's miracle principleforty-eight.
So everything that occurs ishelpful to the all the all, the
larger temporal, temporarysequence.
And it goes to the specialtalents again, and it goes to uh

(01:34:07):
section five of paragraph two.
One of the footnotes refers to,in this sense, the atonement
saves time, but like the miraclewhich serves it, with miracle
which serves the atonement, doesnot abolish time.
So it's shortening time, theatonement and the miracle,

(01:34:28):
shortening time, not abolishingtime.
So this is a profound teachingactually about the nature of
time and your role in itsundoing.
Miracles do collapse timebecause they remove need for
learning through pain or delay.
That's karma.

(01:34:48):
Okay, that's what karma is.
It abolishes intervals.
A miracle abolishes intervalswithin time where suffering or
ego processing would normallyneed to unfold to get to that
next level.
So, see how making illusionssets out the solution, but in
time over a long period of time.

(01:35:11):
That's why we've got this speedup.
So this occurs within timebecause the mind still believes
in time.

unknown (01:35:21):
Okay.

SPEAKER_00 (01:35:22):
Let me read the sentence again.
We have frequently noted thatthe miracle is a device for
shortening, but not abolishingtime.
The miracle occurs in timebecause the mind's believing in
time.
This is a learning device forthe mind.
You are personally called toparticipate in this process.
That's why Jesus is saying youdo have special talents.

(01:35:45):
Your willingness to bemiracle-minded accelerates the
speed up to everyone.
That's why I always say thankyou, thank you, thank you, thank
you to everyone doing this.
It's so, so helpful.
It's truly the only thing that'sany kind of productive or
effective or helpful at all thatyou can do in the world is be
miracle-minded.

(01:36:07):
So the atonement serves the samepurpose as the miracle.
It's not erasing timeprematurely, it's using it for
healing.
So miracles aren't ending time,but they're making it
unnecessary, kind of slowly atfirst.
But you know, once a lot of usget on board with it too, and

(01:36:29):
we're all doing it together,it's going to start going a lot
faster.
You see, you can see that speedup, like even the difference
between one person doing it andtwo on the earth, you know, it's
like it's having it's havinghuge effects.
And people are noticing.
My two friends that I'm hangingout with right now, you know,

(01:36:51):
they're noticing the things thatI'm talking to them about.
They're saying six months ago,they wouldn't have heard it the
same.
Right.
And and, you know, you go back alittle bit further than that,
and they're just like writingyou off as crazy saying this
kind of stuff, right?
But this is an effect of thiscelestial speed up that's
underway.
Those who are ready to see arestarting to see.

(01:37:14):
And you're, you know, you'regonna see too, you become
teachers to the ones who areready to see uh in in your
environment, you can say, youknow, they're gonna recognize
you and go, oh, let me have someof that.
Right?
This is the end of those dayswhere we just like revere a guru

(01:37:38):
or something, and they're waybetter than us, and we're low,
we're we're lowly.
No, we're accessing Christ'sconsciousness, each of us, so
that we can bring true miraclesto this uh world that's been
darkened by fear and light it upand light up the mind of God.

(01:37:59):
So you're not bound by time.
Time is actually bound by yourmind.
That's how it is.
Yeah, you're not bound, you'renot bound in that way at all.
And you can keep on transcendingconsciousness even before, you
know, just like just like Jesusdid, just like the man Jesus
did, extended consciousnessuntil he's Christ consciousness.

(01:38:21):
And then when you know, whenyou're Christ consciousness,
you're still helping everyoneout, but you're not going
through these sufferings becausethey're not necessary for you
anymore.
Because you saw through them,that's all.
It's not like you got a gift forbeing good.
You saw right through them.
You saw that they don't reallyaffect anyone.

(01:38:42):
So whenever you're choosingforgiveness over judgment and
miracles instead of attack andwillingness over your
resistance, you areparticipating in that celestial
speed up.
You're helping to collapse time,you're fulfilling your function.
How do you know when you'refulfilling your function?

(01:39:02):
Do you know how you're how youknow how you totally can be sure
you're fulfilling your functionin that moment?
You're fucking happy.
That's how that works.
Because fulfilling your functionis happiness, all right.
So, are you willing to acceptthat you've been called for

(01:39:24):
this?
You know, are you you are youwilling to let the Holy Spirit
use your unique gifts, which isyour way of perceiving, to help
collapse time?
And that doing so is not aburden on you.
It's not like I'm making asacrifice for the world.
Well, instead of living a goodass life where I get all my
things that I think I want, I'mactually gonna sacrifice and

(01:39:47):
save the world.
It just doesn't make any sense,you know, because it is your joy
to do this.
Nothing is better than this.
You would give up everything forthis, but you don't really have
to give anything of the worldup.
You just recognize that it hasno power over you.

(01:40:13):
All right, we got 20 minutes.
It looks like I might do acouple more sentences here.
We'll see.
Sentence four, paragraph three.
We are in section 13 of chaptertwo, the real meaning of the
last judgment.

(01:40:34):
Sentence four.
If a sufficient number of peoplebecome truly miracle-minded
quickly, the shortening processcan be almost immeasurable.
So he's now revealing theextraordinary power of
collective willingness.
But you notice we don't have togo out and get people, it's just

(01:40:58):
us being willing, it's attractsmind energy, it attracts.
So we're giving people to joinwith when we're willing to join
with God.
So this is shortening time forall minds because we're all
joined together with God.
The key phrase here, let's readit again.

(01:41:20):
If a sufficient number of peoplebecome truly miracle-minded
quickly, so the trulymiracle-minded means not just
believing miracles are possible,but consistently choosing
miracle perception over egoperception, choosing forgiveness

(01:41:43):
over judgment, choosing unityover separation.
It's a choice.
So, this is what trulymiracle-minded means.
It's teaching that the speed upof the world's healing isn't
dependent on chronological time,it's the number of minds
choosing miracles and choosingtrue miracles.

(01:42:06):
This is it's not really aboutthe quantity of people, it's
about quality of perception.
That's why just really A Coursein Miracles, it just really
takes one from your perception,your world to collapse, your
apparent world to collapse,which that's basically you got
to the end of time for you.

(01:42:27):
You got to the end of time.
That was it.
You just walked right out of itbecause you were done purifying
from the guilty self-concept.
That's just what how it occurs.
It's only a guilty self-concepttying you to the world.
So that's why it really onlytakes you as far as the whole
world and everyone who's but whobelieves they're separate.

(01:42:49):
Yes, the more people that butthat see what's true, even um
are aware of their Christconsciousness, the easier it's
gonna be for everyone, and thefaster it's gonna be for
everyone to wake up to.
Just me going and and you know,noticing.
Uh I talk to people now and theyseem to get it so much faster

(01:43:12):
than I did and when I was goingthrough it.
And it's just because the mindhas been trained more toward
this way of seeing, you know,myself and others who have like
seen uh that this is what youdo, this is the way you look at
it.
You look at it differently, youlook at it through the Holy
Spirit's eyes.
The world isn't gonna like it,especially at first.

(01:43:34):
They get used to it, though.
They kind of get trained, justlike they've been trained to be
as they are, when your mind'sall steeped in separation.
So when a critical mass ofminds, however many that is,
it's it's more quant, it's morequality than quantity, though,
are aligning with miraclemindedness, the collapse can

(01:43:57):
accelerate beyond measurement.
So it just begins to can beginto dissolve rapidly.
That's what we're doing.
That's why I was like, shoot,there's nothing else for me to
do.
Just collapsing illusions,collapsing time.
So miracle-mindedness is the thetrigger for exponential

(01:44:22):
awakening.
It's not something to takelightly, it's not passive, it's
a call to serve your function.
This is not about being passive.
It's actually you're watchingand you're choosing because you
are choosing.
And let's look, let's look at itthis way, too.
You've been passively choosingwith the ego.

(01:44:45):
That's what happens when you'repassive about it.
You automatically choose withthe ego because it's the default
choice to be making.
So this is driven by yourwillingness to see it
differently than the way you'vebeen trained to see things.
You're not alone in this.
When you choose healing,everyone's affected by that.

(01:45:06):
It serves everyone.
Like I said, it's the onlyservice you can do.
So this is yeah, this isliterally changing the
trajectory of time for allbeings.
Every instant that you choose,it's changing it for all beings.
It's very powerful, and that'show powerful you are when you're

(01:45:31):
making the decision for truth.
You know, when you're making thedecision for illusion, you're
basically not changing anything,you're making the future just
like the past.
This has already been calculatedto be the way you do you go
along with it in the projectionof future time.
But it actually changes thefuture because it releases it to

(01:45:53):
truth.
So are you willing today toaccept that your little
willingness, are you willing toaccept that your little bit of
willingness can and willcollapse centuries of delay for
countless beings?

(01:46:13):
See, this isn't this isn't a uhlike a some kind of self
self-help thing to get you, itlike goes way deeper than that.
It's like you've been called toawaken all beings, and this is
your true joy, and there'snothing else that's gonna make
you happy.
Try as you might to findsomething else.

(01:46:34):
This is the only thing that'sever gonna make you happy.
And would I let myself feel thesignificance of that, of
choosing miracle-mindedness andhow important it is that I
choose miracle-mindedness, or atleast will in that direction as
much as I can and be a happylearner when I perceive myself

(01:46:56):
screwing it up.
Remember, you're only screwingit up in your perception.
That should be helpful.
Perception can be corrected.
All right, sentence five, unlessany of you peeps that are online

(01:47:18):
know you guys are all doingawesome.
Thank you for joining.
Sentence five, paragraph three.
But it is essential that theseindividuals free themselves from
fear sooner than wouldordinarily be the case.
You hear that?
What he's saying?
So he's asking us to freeourselves from fear sooner than

(01:47:44):
would ordinarily be the case.
Because they must emerge fromthe basic conflict.
That's the conflict between loveand fear that we went over.
If they are to bring peace tothe minds of others, so we are
being called to be free of thebasic conflict sooner than would

(01:48:06):
ordinarily be the case.
But we want it sooner becausethis is how we don't have to go
through so much suffering.
All those millions of years thatwe've set out as a as a future
includes a lot of suffering.
We don't want all this.
Each life is like that.

(01:48:27):
No one wants this bullshit, it'snot real, and we don't need to
keep on doing it.
So Jesus is saying, you know,he's calling on us now to sooner
than would ordinarily be thecase, emerge from basic
conflict.
Okay, that's love and fear, sothat we can have peace in our

(01:48:50):
mind.
It's the only way we can bringpeace to others is by allowing
peace in our own mind.
So he's giving us here a directinstruction to how to
participate in this celestialspita.
Okay, and of course, thatincludes you.
This is not for you to beperfect or spiritually superior,

(01:49:12):
it's about you being free fromfear.
You need to be free from fear.
Why?
Because fear is binding yourmind in conflict, it's making
you believe that when you get anupset feeling, something is
actually wrong.
Instead of it being somethingkind of is wrong, it's
confusion.
There's no threat in the world,though.

(01:49:35):
So a conflicted mind can'textend peace.
You can't give what you haven'taccepted for yourself.
So to emerge from the basicconflict means to recognize that
you cannot be both ego andspirit.
This is really what it is.

(01:49:57):
You know, Jesus did a lot oftalking about this in the basic
conflict section.
We're believing that we're both.
We're not both, we're only one.
I tell my friends, you are nothuman.
You know, they'll no, you know,it's a it's a human thing.
I know, but you're not human.

(01:50:18):
Right?
So you can you can either keepthat concept or not.
That's the sorting out.
You can say, nah, I won't keepthat one.
Don't like the feeling thatcomes with it.
So you have to choose one.
You have to choose ego orspirit.
When you choose both, you'rechoosing ego.

(01:50:40):
That's what Jesus is saying.
You cannot have both, you'rejust choosing ego.
You've made spirit intosomething that can coexist with
ego, they do not coexist.
So those called to acceleratethe awakening must choose
consistently for spirit, as inspirit is my identity.

(01:51:01):
See, like I am Jesus.
I have no problem saying that.
I've been saying that for years,actually.
That's why I'm have no problemsaying that.
One time we just came on and outon wisdom dialogue, and I was
like, yeah, that's true.
I said that to my mom during aBible study.

(01:51:22):
It was pretty funny.
Her face was fun.
I expected something likeblasphemy to come out of her
mouth.
But I think she felt it.
Yeah, I got the sense that shefelt it because she didn't have
a response to it.
She didn't say, No, you're not.

(01:51:42):
She did not say, No, you're not,Jesus.
Which, of course, if she saidno, you're not, I would just
say, okay.
That's cool.
So you have to consistentlychoose for spirit as your
identity.

(01:52:02):
See that?
Not as something outside ofyourself.
I am spirit.
I am spirit.
I'm not something else.
I'm not mixed, right?
You don't mix with anythingelse.
Spirit is spirit, right?
That's uh that's the purity init.
We don't mix with illusion,right?

(01:52:22):
I wonder if if they got thatthing like earlier on, where it
seemed like if you mix races,that was bad.
That would seem like an egointerpretation.
Is that pretty funny or what?
Keep the keep the race pure.
Don't mix them.
It's just taking what it'ssaying and making it for the

(01:52:43):
ego's gain.
See that?
Yeah, but what it's saying is donot mix spirit with illusion,
because when you do that, youtake yourself to be an illusion,
cause suffering, and and andbasically extend that real.
It's projection, it's calledprojection by course in
miracles.
Jesus uh differentiates betweenbetween uh projecting something

(01:53:08):
and actually being something.
So uh it's like there's thisprojection of separation.
If I say I'm ego and spirit, themind just hears you're split,
takes it as you're an ego.

(01:53:28):
So when we consistently choosespirit, that makes us channels
for peace.
So the call to free yourselfhere, what Jesus is doing is
calling you to free yourself.
It's not a demand on you, it'san invitation to liberation.

(01:53:50):
And the way it, if he seems likehe's saying it in a forceful
way, like wake the fuck up,that's because that's what you
want.
You're offering it like thattoo.
Okay, you want it like thatbecause you were saying when you
you said, I'm gonna go in and dothis thing, I want to know.
Come around, tell me about it,right?

(01:54:12):
So you're you're not even beingasked to be fearless by your
effort, it's willing to let fearbe replaced with love.
Would you exchange that fear forwhat's actually true?
And the sooner fear is given up,the sooner your function gets
fulfilled.
So we have to get past thisbasic conflict.

(01:54:35):
And what he's saying is that wehave to do it quicker than
normal.
So it's a radical, for me, it'sa radical relaxation in the
mind.
Doesn't mean I can't find myselfdoing stuff.
You know, the ego always has ahard time with that concept that
I need do nothing.
It's that's what gives me therelaxation.

(01:54:57):
That doesn't mean I'm opposed todoing something.
You're not doing this foryourself alone, you're doing it
on behalf of the whole sonship.
So your peace is a source ofpeace for others.
Your being at peace is becomestheir source of peace because

(01:55:19):
there's someone in the worldthat they can relate with,
someone apparently in the worlddemonstrating peace.
This helps so many people.
So choosing to be free of fearbecause I'm here to bring peace
to others.
I've had that in my mind whereI've uh I've experienced

(01:55:39):
struggle, a fearful thoughtarising in my mind.
And I'll think of my friends andrecognizing that if I don't see
the truth, that messes them up.
So I want to see the truth.
So that's helped me by giving meincentive.
It shifts this relationship withfear of and personal struggle.

(01:56:00):
Poor me, poor me.
I'm in this relationship orwhatever's going on.
To I want to help all myfriends.
I certainly don't want to setthem back.
Right.
Am I willing to release fear notjust for my own peace, but
because my mind is needed?
That has helped me many times topull out of perceived struggle,

(01:56:24):
knowing that this affects peoplethat I love, people that I know
and love, my kids, my myhusband, my immediate family,
and everyone, all my friends,right?
And everyone in the world.
So when it makes it morepersonal to you to live on that
divine purpose, recognizingyou're not alone in this at all.

(01:56:48):
